Une histoire entre les mains (A Story in Your Hands)
Led by Jessica Heafey, performer.
In this participatory workshop, let yourselves be guided by curiosity, conversation and the pleasure of storytelling, inspired by the themes of Tout ça. Using an object of value for you as a starting point, explore what is revealed when we speak about something outside of ourselves. An invitation to share, to listen and to discover the power of stories when creating connection.
Bring an object that has a certain significance for you. You don’t have one? A selection of objects will be available. No theatre, nor storytelling experience is required, only the desire for curiosity and listening.
Open to all and accessible without having seen the show Tout ça. Activity in French.
Location: Carousel Theatre for Young People – Studio A. This venue is accessible to people with accessibility needs.
Time: 10:00 am – 11:30 am.
Game design and playtesting
With dragons‘ artistic team: Patrick Blenkarn, Laurel Green, and Milton Lim.
Participatory workshop.
What can theatre learn from games? How do games tell stories? What do they reveal about our world? Together with the creators of the videogame for the stage dragons, participants will explore these questions by ‘modding’ board games to tell stories in which audiences play a role. The session will include rapid prototype and playtesting to demonstrate the transformative social potential of play, and the kinds of collaboration that games can facilitate.
No prior game design experience is necessary, and there is no need to prepare anything in advance. Just be ready to play!
20 participants maximum; ages 12+.
Open to all and accessible without having seen the show dragons. Activity in both French and English.
Location: Green Thumb Theatre
Time: 10:00 am – 12:00 pm

Our goal
Through our cultural outreach activities, we strive to connect the social and the cultural realms and to create links between culture and the public space.
We align with the vision of Culture pour tous: Outreach creates privileged meeting places between artists and citizens, thus promoting interpersonal exchange, learning, and engagement. It can also help reduce psychological and social barriers that prevent target groups from accessing culture.
Language and access
At Théâtre la Seizième, we are committed to making the works and cultural productions we program accessible to as many people as possible.
Most of our activities and meetings will be held in French but some of them will be bilingual.
